Los Angeles to become Turkey's logistics center for exports

Economy Minister Zafer Caglayan said on Sunday that Turkey would build a logistics center in Los Angeles to store Turkish goods and minimize the disadvantages of the huge distance between Turkey and the United States. “During my previous trip to the US I had asked the Turkish Exporters Assembly Pesident, Mehmet Buyueksi to hire a big warehouse at the Los Angeles Harbor to store the most exported Turkish goods to the US to be able to sell them immediately when needed. Since the distance is far between the two countries, we face some disadvantages in sending goods from Turkey. However, if TİM does not take the initiative to hire this storage space, we as the Economy Ministry, will do it. There is no other way,” Caglayan told the reporters during his trip to San Francisco.
